Probably nothing. APS is seemingly conducting an investigation regarding your mother's circumstances. For actual legal advice you will need to retain an attorney. The devil is in the details unfortunately. Keep in mind that APS deals with people who have dementia on a regular basis. Depending on the investigator you get, they are fairly used to hearing about unfounded hallucinations. Either way, they may find that her needs are not being met with her current level of care.
